Chapter 225: Condemnation of Ten Thousand

Hang up the phone.

Jiang Lai realized everyone was looking at her.

Secretary Cen lifted her red lips, raised an eyebrow slightly, and Chi Ce uttered the words of congratulations.

Ke Zhongyu said, "After filing the lawsuit, the court will accept it within seven days; that's still giving Shen Xun too much time."

He suggested, "Post something on the Moments."

In Jiang Lai's Moments were Sinuo's person in charge Soren and Fu Family's heir Fu Youlin.

Jiang Lai understood, ignored the one phone call after another from A City, and posted a Moment.

I, Jiang Lai, signed a divorce agreement with Shen Xun a month and a half ago, and obtained the divorce certificate half a month ago.

Attached are pictures of the marriage certificate and the divorce certificate.

Ke Zhongyu was the first to like it.

Then came Secretary Cen, Doctor Chi, Secretary Guan, Assistant Zhou, Ke Zhongying, Professor Cheng, Xiao Qian, Aunt Jiang, the teacher's wife, Uncle Deng, Shen Bingrui…

Her Moments had never been so lively; likes and comments kept piling up, rows of congratulations accompanied by fireworks.

Until a different one appeared.

Soren:?

Soren: Why is the translation wrong?

Soren: My translation is also wrong!

Jiang Lai looked up at Ke Zhongyu and said, "Mr. Soren saw it."

Ke Zhongyu: "What should I say?"

Jiang Lai handed over her phone; Ke Zhongyu glanced and said, "Reply to him in English."

Jiang Lai switched her phone's keyboard and fluently typed a long English reply to Soren; the phone's translation was correct, the portable translator was also correct. She had indeed divorced Shen Xun long ago, and that evening's banquet was forced on her by Shen Xun.

She even said sorry to Mr. Soren.

Soren, already off work, saw the message and was so angry he wanted to call Shen Xun to verify.

However.

Shen Xun's phone had already been bombarded with calls.

The Fu Youlin that Jiang Lai added was fake, but Chi Ce's and Fu Youqing's friend was real.

After Chi Ce liked Jiang Lai's Moment, he screenshot it, sent it to Fu Youqing, and reminded her.

【Shen Xun's person used to threaten Jiang Lai has been found, and something happened; Jiang Lai not only announced the divorce on Moments, the lawsuit to recover joint marital assets has already been filed in court; I can't disclose the exact amount, but a lot】

【Miss Fu, even I think it's a lot; you can imagine for yourself, if the Fu Family wants to protect themselves, act sooner】

【I won't say more, Director Ke, this Yama King knows he can kill me】

Ke Zhongyu glanced sideways at Chi Ce, knowing without guessing who he was messaging.

Fine.

Chi Ce's report conveniently pushed the matter forward; the Fu Family abandoned Shen Xun, and Shen Xun, lacking any source of funds thereafter, to compensate, could only go bankrupt.

A tarnished reputation and bankruptcy are Shen Xun's best recompense to Jiang Lai.

Jiang Lai's posting on Moments was so swift that Shen Xun was caught off guard, with no remedy at all.

One phone call after another, accusations in the senior internal group kept flooding the screen.

Shen Xun hung his head, sitting in his office chair; at that moment the office was silent except for him, merely the calm before a storm.

Sinuo's project had just launched; even if the Fu Family offered concessions, it might stay, but he definitely couldn't stay.

Moreover, Jiang Lai found Ping'an, and will soon file a lawsuit in court.

Ping'an also got into trouble, and that tiny possibility between him and Jiang Lai vanished.

Shen Xun let out a sudden cold laugh.

Shen Xun, once dazzling, fell to this day of condemnation by ten thousand because of two women.

Shen Xun dialed Lin Shutong's phone and, numbly, said, "Jiang Lai has already filed a lawsuit; hurry and prepare the money, don't say I didn't warn you."

He hung up after speaking.

He didn't care at all about what was happening on Lin Shutong's end.

Lin Shutong was at the Ji Family, and he answered the phone in front of Ji Lao.

Ji Lao heard it.

Ji Lao's son and daughter‑in‑law also heard it.

"What lawsuit?"

The woman's words just finished, and Ji Lao immediately set his face stern, his anger rising, saying, "Lin Shutong, this is the negotiation you told me about! This is the private settlement you mentioned!"

The whole family was shaken by the old man's shout, unable to breathe.

Even his own son, even a daughter‑in‑law married into the Ji Family for twenty‑plus years, had never seen Ji Lao so angry; normally when someone errs, he glares and rebukes, but never shouts outright.

Lin Shutong's phone was practically shattered by the shouting.

"I, I don't know what's happening, I don't know why Jiang Lai suddenly… suddenly backed out."

She was also worried; with this lawsuit on her back, it would be hard for her to enter a national research institute later.

"Grandfather, I really don't know what's happening."

"If you don't know, who else could?" Ji Lao's face turned ashen with anger.

The son and daughter‑in‑law, fearing the old man might get so angry like last time he ended up in the hospital, hurried forward to appease him.

If he truly lost his life, they as son and daughter‑in‑law would also feel uneasy; normally they just mutter behind his back about his favoritism, never truly becoming traitors.

"What has Miss Lin of our family done to make dad so angry? No matter how…"

Ji Lao, being helped to sit on the sofa, finally spoke the things he hadn't said to his son and daughter‑in‑law; in his anger he couldn't hold back.

"Ask her yourself! Being with a married man and not saying it, and still taking other people's money!"

Although Ji Lao didn't say anything, his son and daughter-in-law had long known in their hearts, and they weren't very surprised.

The woman, to pacify the old man, let out an "Eh": "How much could that be? Sell the stuff they gave her, take a bit out yourself, wouldn't that be fine?"

Ji Lao: "Over a hundred million!"

The woman's face froze, she shouted: "How much?! Over a hundred million? You, a mistress, take over a hundred million from others—did your brain short-circuit, or have you been reading books into the toilet these years? Did feces smear your brain? Being a mistress, you should have the awareness of a mistress; taking roughly that much is enough!"

Lin Shutong's face alternated between green and white from the scolding, especially being berated by the maternal aunt she had disliked since childhood, who pointed at her nose and scolded her.

"I tell you, Lin Shutong, you've been eating and living in my house these years, that's fine; the old master likes you, the old master is willing to pave the way for you, give you money and resources, we don't hold it against you, but you owe this debt, dare to reach out and ask the Ji family for a sum, if the old master is soft-hearted and dares to give her a penny, I'll immediately divorce your son!"

The Ji family isn't really a wealthy clan; the couple just runs a small company doing some small business, it's only because the old master has fame and status in academic circles that the Ji family appears somewhat like that, looking a bit imposing.

But, over a hundred million!

Whoever wants to manage Lin Shutong can go manage her!

The woman, furious, looked at her husband and said: "See, I told you so, this niece of yours will sooner or later turn our household upside down."

Has Ji Lao never once scolded his daughter-in-law for speaking loudly to him?

"Lin Shutong, if you need to repay the money, go to your parents; they eat and live at the school, over these years they've surely saved up a decent dowry for you, go to them." The woman gave a look as if looking at a plague god.

Lin Shutong really wanted to slap the woman, but out of respect for her grandfather being present, and being a junior, she had to restrain herself, only daring to sob and shed tears.

"Grandfather, I didn't know Jiang Lai would do this."

"You don't know people would do this? You used to think they lacked the ability to do this!" Ji Lao, toward this granddaughter he had painstakingly cultivated, already showed a disappointed expression.

Lin Shutong left the Ji family in tears.

Just after stepping out the door, she felt a pang of pain in her lower abdomen.

Frightened, Lin Shutong didn't immediately go back, but went to the hospital for a check-up.

The doctor, hearing her say she had never undergone a comprehensive check-up, was momentarily stunned, then asked carefully: "You've only done a blood routine and urine routine?"

Lin Shutong nodded.

Doctor: "Liver and kidney function, blood sugar, thyroid, infectious disease screening—you haven't done any of those?"
